The 20 Most Expensive Action Figures And Collectible Dolls

The 20 most expensive action figures and collectible dolls… “It’s not a doll, it’s an action figure!” If you don’t know that line, yelled by Woody in Toy Story, something is not right. No offense to Woody, but being a doll or an action figure doesn’t really make a difference when it comes to the value of these collectibles. When a toy company produces an action figure for a limited time, or there’s a collectible doll decked out in diamonds, we’ve learned that they’ll likely be worth something of great value.

Look through this list of the most expensive action figures and dolls ever sold. Who knows? You might even own one of these precious gems. If not, maybe it’ll inspire you to hold onto your old toys when next year’s garage sale comes around.
